This Week in People History: Olivia’s Movie Breakthrough

August 5, 2019

Forty-one years ago Olivia Newton-John strutted her way to big-screen stardom as Sandy in 1978’s summer blockbuster Grease. While the Aussie native, then 29, had already earned six platinum albums, she told People that acting had “always been in the back of my mind.” Today the 70-year-old superstar lives on a ranch with her husband, John Easterling, in Southern California and continues to receive treatment for stage 4 breast cancer, her third bout with the disease since 1992. In November she will auction off Sandy’s iconic Grease costumes to raise money for her namesake cancer research and wellness center in Melbourne.

Thank you Kay !

The moment I asked Thee “Olivia Newton John” if she listens to Bob Marley with a joint to help with her cancer! 🙀😂🙈🇯🇲 🇦🇺 The answer is NO! But she does love @jamaica and @bobmarley #phew 😅 (You know when the words come out...but then you hear yourself... 🤦🏿‍♀️🙈honestly I’m glad she spoke about cannabis being used medically and I fully support @therealonj goals to see the end of cancer globally) What a week! What an icon! #iloveONJ The Famous ‘Bad Sandy’ outfit will be auctioned in November. But it’s on display in the museum of Style Icons in Newbridge, Silverware Museum until 18th August @newbridgesilverware #iGotChills #yourtheonethatiwant #letsgetphyisical #xanadu
